A Will Eternal – Chapter 463

Chapter 463: The City of the World

"And we're still inside the Great Wall …." Bai Xiaochun thought. Everything he had seen so far gave him a clearer understanding of the field.

"If everything is like this inside the Great Wall, then ... what is it like outside?" The truth was that he didn't even want to know the answer to that question. The group flew for quite a while, passing through three teleportation stations. Finally, they got closer to the midpoint across the area that was inside the Great Wall.

That is the location of World City.

They had faced dangerous situations along the way, but there was nothing they could not handle. After all, the land between the Eastern Sea City and the World City was relatively safe.

Occasionally, they saw other cultivators, most of whom traveled in groups of between three to five. It was rare that they had ever met someone alone, and when they did, they were people with cold faces and wary expressions, which gave Bai Xiaochun's group a spacious bed.

There was also visible fatigue in their eyes that caused Bai Xiaochun's heart to grow colder than before.

"This place is even more dangerous than I thought .." he thought, heart pounding. The closer they were to the World City, the more such a feeling within him.

Time pass. As they got closer to the World City, Bai Xiaochun realized that the land around them was getting blacker, and the vegetation was becoming more and more strange. Even the birds and beasts were getting stranger, and more and more black.

Other than all that, the most telling change Bai Xiaochun could feel was spiritual energy, which was getting weaker. Zhao Tianjiao and the others in the group had difficulty adjusting it, but it wasn't as bad for Bai Xiaochun. At this moment, the spiritual energy level was almost the same as the one they had in the Lower Reaches.

For those people who were only used to the spiritual energy in the Starry Sky Polarity Sect, it was a huge difference, but Bai Xiaochun did not find it very surprising.

A few days passed and, finally, they reached the second city of the three cities, World City!

It was different from the Eastern Sea City, huge, like a giant cube made of black bricks. Black light shone out from it in all directions, and was only barely visible on the wall patrolling cultivators ….

Large magic cannons that were clearly defensive weapons could be seen on the walls, and for the large stone slabs that made bricks, they were all marked with sealing marks, he said, showing that the entire city itself was a spell formation.

Although the spell formation was only partially active, it remained that the city remained tightly sealed. This was the second main line of defense within the Great Wall!

If Great Wall City ever fell, then this place. There were many cultivators in the city, and the available resources were plentiful beyond belief. The truth was that, other than acting as a reserve defense location, this place existed as a supply warehouse for Great Wall City!

In the dim light of night, World City looked like a giant, sinister and predatory beast. It was the kind of place that would make one shaken even look at it from a distance, as if it had a murderous aura of its own!

"That's the World City ahead," Zhao Tianjiao said. "We will rest a little here and then start the second journey. We will definitely face some dangerous situations in the second part of the journey, so you all have to be mentally prepared. ” The other faces in the group were extremely grim, and to Bai Xiaochun, he wailed deeply.

There were bones strewn outside the city, some of which were bleached by the sun and had clearly been lying there for a very long time. The entire area looked very wild and silent.

Bai Xiaochun could tell that many of those bones were definitely not the bones of cultivators, however, nor were they bones of beasts. They looked humanoid, but were much thicker and longer, as if they belonged to a gigantic breed.

Such bones were extremely tenacious, and even among the scattered ones, almost nothing was broken.

"Don't tell me it's the Wildlands' bones from behind the wall?" he thinks.

When Zhao Tianjiao noticed Bai Xiaochun looking at the bones, he said, "When the Great Wall was breached, the World City. Although that had been the case for a long time, these bones were intentionally left out in the open so that everyone would understand the brutality of war!

“We cultivators are after our Dao, but at the same time, we have to defend our sect, and the world around us! We can't let the Wildland pass through the Heavenspan Sea! ” With that, he and Chen Yueshan flew towards World City.

Zhao Tianjiao's followers and Chen Yueshan's friends also left, leaving Bai Xiaochun to be the last to catch up.

"What's with all the fighting and killing …?" he thinks. "Ah, whatever. Now that I have seen for myself how dangerous this place is, I must agree with Du Lingfei. I need to find a place to hole up for ten years, then I can exchange one of my deva souls for some beast souls. ”

After making a decision, Bai Xiaochun took a deep breath and rushed forward, keeping his grim-looking face. Even though he was inwardly frightened, he was obviously not going to let those feelings appear.

Quickly chasing after Zhao Tianjiao, he declared, “You are absolutely right, Elder Brother Zhao! We cultivators have to risk our lives to fight the Wildlanders! ”

Zhao Tianjiao laughed out loud in response. Soon, they arrived outside the city gates, where their identity medals were checked before they were allowed to enter.

World City looked big on the outside, but upon entering, it looked bigger. The streets were filled with peasants going here and there, however, there was no frenzy of conversation, as if no one wanted to speak out loud.

Bai Xiaochun could tell that resources must be plentiful in the World City. Be it medicinal pills, magic items, or paper talismans, items were available everywhere. In addition, the price is not too outrageous. In fact, many medicinal pills were cheaper here than anywhere else.

Another thing that stood out to Bai Xiaochun was the garrison in the city !!

It was filled with cultivators, all of whom exuded murderous auras, and also wore unique clothes decorated with blood-colored hands!

That hand pulsed with the power of the spell formation which made each and every one of those cultivators seem like the type of person who had climbed a mountain of corpses and swam through the sea of blood. Every time the cultivators from the garrison went to the city, everyone treated them with the utmost respect.

"The cultivators were members of the Steel Vein Hall," Zhao Tianjiao explained, "but they were different from their compatriots in the Great Wall City. These people only surpassed the wall to fight once in a while. Most of the time, they were on guard here in World City. ” When Zhao Tianjiao looked at the farmers from the Steel Vein Hall, his eyes shone with respect and anticipation.

"They occasionally go through the wall?" When Bai Xiaochun thought of the fact that these people only occasionally surpassed the walls, yet looked extremely shocking, he could not help but wonder.

As he wallowed in his anxiety, the group found an inn to stay at that night. As for Zhao Tianjiao and Chen Yueshan, they went to visit the elders in the garrison; considering their status, it was a right that only they had among the group.

Zhao Tianjiao invited Bai Xiaochun to come along, but after some thought, Bai Xiaochun decided that he would explore the city instead.

Night came, and the sky became dark. Even so, World City was as busy as daylight, and all the shops remained open. Bai Xiaochun walked together looking at the crowd and window shopping. The crowd was very quiet; even when people spoke, it was almost whispering.

It was a very strange environment, to say the least.
